Williamsburg Interference Oil Colors The Interference colors are mica-based colors that look and act like a transparent pearl, but play with the light and throw off color with the most mysterious effects. Imagine the colors that shoot out of a fire opal, except each color is isolated. For example, Interference Violet goes on like an almost colorless glaze but the violet “fire” picks up and reflects light, particularly on dark surfaces. These interference colors work best in glazes as they lose their opalescent sheen when mixed too much with other colors.
